Two Stars for the Sharks - Zero for the Humans
8 February 2018
OK. I get to see some awesomely big great white sharks. But this reminds me of another fantasy (unrealistic) adventure film, Gravity. That is, the genre of films which are unrealistic ever pretending to be realistic. The same thing here. If we want fantasy, then make it so. Like Sharknado. Let's have some flying sharks that leap out of the water to take the shark cage down.

But really, what makes this film bad is 1) acting was poor, 2) directing was poor, 3) script was poor, 4) scuba and realism was laughable. Rocket in Guardians of the Galaxy is more believable. And cooler.

The most laughable part was having two divers talking, screaming, kicking and swimming around...in how long? Did they say 20 minutes top? They would have run out of air in 10 minutes. Amazingly, they hardly considered ever shutting up to conserve air. And how did they swim around that well without fins? Don't they get pain in the ears just falling quickly to 47 m? Or did they just go deaf?

This movie should be fed to the sharks. Score: Sharks 2, People 0
